By reference to drawings, 1 indicates a frame. carrying the brackets 2 and 2",

mounted in these brackets is a shaft 3 which I call the driving-shaft. This receives momentum through beveled gears 5 and 6 from a horizontal shaft 4 to which is attached a crank arm 7 with handle 7'. The driving shaft successively communicates motion to the folding mechanism through the gear Wheels 8 and 8, to a paper feed. roller 106 through the Wheels 102, 103, 104, 104 and 105 (Figs. 7 and 8) and to the winding mechanism through the gear wheels 13, 17 and 23 (Figs. 1 and 4). A cam wheel 110 mounted on, the driving shaft operates a telescoping tube near the top of the ma chine and another cam wheel ls raises and lowers. periodically the winding mechanism.

paper. The gear wheels are mounted free .on the driving shaft and are moved interi v Near the center of the machine is a packet holder shown in detail, Figs. 18 and '19.- This packet holder is madeintwo sections, 50 and 51. The section .51 being hinged at 56 and is kept by a spring 56 normally closed. These two sections are made ad justable in relation to each other to receive dili'erent sizes of coin. The section of the packet holder 51 is hinged to a piece having the extension 53 which is litted. to slide in a. framework or guide 55). mounted on the bracket 30. The other section of the packet holder 50 has an extension 51 fitted to slide inside of piece 53, links it.) and 4W and pins &8 and 4S connect with an adjusting rod I93, which being turned reduces or in reases the distance apart of 50 and 51 to acconn nodate various sizes of coins. The piece 50 is kept upright and in alinen'ient by a wing or extension shown better in Fig. 11), which is made to OIWugc with the paper chute.

" The hinged portion of the packet holder is provided with a lug 57, which is engaged by a projection on an arm 111, this armis attached to one of the folders by means of 'which it is madeto swing open the hinged portion 51. The section 51 is spring actuated and-is closed by tripping the piece 111 whi'chengages the lug 57. A small projection- 112 at-the lower edge of the piece 51; projects inward and performs a spinning operation on the coin packet making an interior ridge just below the bottom coin which keeps the coin from dropping out.

The

I spring actuated piece 55 serves as a guide for. the arm 111 and is raised or tripped at certainintervals to disengage the piece 111 from'the -lug 57 to close the gate 51 as will v be described more fully later on. Attached to the piece 51 is an arm 58 which swings inward when the gate is opened and ejects the finished packet.

The packet holder may be made to vaccommodate longer packages by providing extensions at the top for the pieces 50 and 51 kept in alinementby guides and so arranged as to be raised and lowered by arms extending from the platform 30.

Above the packet holder and attached to I the hollow spindle 113 is a telescoping tube a 114, shown in detail in Figs. 12 and 13. The

telescopingsect'ion is moved up and down in the spindle by a forked arm 115 engaging in the groove 115' and extending from 'a shaft 116 mounted in bearings 116,. another arm 117 from the other end of this shaft engages with a groove 118 in the cam wheel 110 and periodically raises and lowers the telescoping tube. I also provide means for lengthening this tube and increasing and decreasing its diameter. A telescoping piece 119 fits inth interior of tube 114 and is provided with an arm 124: which is extended to engage with a helical groove 226 in the piece 225. -When the shaft 220 is rotated the arms 126 and 124 are brought nearer or farther apart and the tubc'119 is raised or lowered in its relation to tube 114. A guide pin 124' keeps the two arms in alincment, a

small pin on the interior of thec'ylinder 225 v engages with a groove 224 in the shaft 220 '50 J movement up and down for the telescoping and. allpws the cylindrical piece 225 free action of the arm 115. To secure an adjustmentpf the diameter of this telescoping tube .1 provide an inner thin coil tube 125 suspended at: its upper end beneath a conical shaped member 119. An enlargement of the tube 119 forms a chamber in which are mounteda series of small cams l'iaving bea ring edges impinging on the circui'nierence of 125, one portion, of this chamber is rotatable in relation to the other part and is provided with an arm 122 having a fork which engages with a rod 19? attached to a bracket on the shaft 198 so that when this shaft is rotated the lugs will press on the tube 125 and increase or decrease its diameter. The engage ment of the lever 122 with the rod 197 is such as to permit of "free movement up or down of the telescoping tube. a The details of the cams 121 are the same as are employed in the regulation of the diameter of the coin magazine and are more fully described later on and shown in detail in Figs. 15 and 16. v

Mounted on the bracket 2 is a hollow stud 27 carrying a spindle 22 which is driven by gear wheels 13, 17 and 23. The gear Wheel 13 to which is attached a ratchet toothed rim 14 is mounted free on the shaft 3; mounted rigidly on'the shafting is an arm 16 carrying a spring actuated ratchet pawl 15; this ratchet pawl has an arm with roller 135 which is intercepted by a rigidly I secured casingv 89, 89' at certain intervals and thrown out of its engagement with the ratchet rim attachedto the gear wheel 13. to secure intermittent movement oi the winding apparatus. A spring actuated detent 133 engages notches in a disk 134ca1-ried by the spindle 22 to arrest momentum when the driving mechanism is disconnected and the parts are at rest. The splndle 22 is raised and lowered periodically by means of a cam 18 in a manner similar to that described for the telescoping tube at the top of the machine, a'bifurcated arm 20 fits in a groove of the spindle and is attached to a shaft mounted in a bracket 21 carrying another arm with roller 19 whichtravels in a vgroove in the rim of cam 18. Near the top of the spindle is mounted a'crosspiece 24, having an interior spring 29. This crosspiece carries an upright arm 29 which grips the paper by pressing into a groove in the cylindrical piece 94:. The piece 24' is operated by a lever 26 Which'in turn is operated by faces 27 27 on the stud 27.

95 is a spring actuated catch which engages with the end of the cross-piece 24 and prevents the finger 29 from closing with the piece. 94 until the spindle 22 has been raised nearly to its highest position. This catch is tripped by the cam 27 on the stud 27. The action of the lever 26 is to depress the spring 29 without closing the arm 29 until .the piece 95 is withdrawn when the arm is closed by the actionof the spring.

The piece 94 is made of thin metal and forms a cylindrical coil secured to one of the pieces 93 at the point Where the finger 29 engages. this piece 94 to suit various sizes of coin. For this purpose I provide, four pieces 93 having cam faces on their inner profile which engage cam faces 92 and 925 on the end of an upright piece 92, the piece 92-acts as a Wedge to separate the pieces 93 expanding the coil cylinder 94:. Asit is necessary Provision is made to expandto arrange this adjustment so that it will permit of the raising and lowering of the s pinjdle as well as top permit it to rotate I swivel the' piecej 92 o11to-the end of an extensionpieceBO which is raised and lowered which is positioned within the hollow stud erms on either side 1 which are fitted t grooves "cut irillthe walls of thestnd.

1 Attached to the hollow spindle at the top of the machine is a cam Wheel LO, shown in Figs. 1, 6 and 12. This camnvheel receives momentum through the gear Wheels 8 and 8.

Theaetion being intermittent andeitected through a fixed arm 10 with a ratchet pawl 12 engaging a ratchet rim 9 Jn the Wheel 8 in a manner similar to that described for driving the Winding mechanism. A. detent pawl maybe mounted on any portion of the framework or bracket and falling in a notch 'in the rim of cam Wheel 10 serve to arrest momentum. Three rods 37, 38 and 39 (Figs.

1 and 4) carry platforms or brackets 3 0, 30 i 5 and 31 to which are attached the folding ineehanism. On the bracket 31 are four guides; 160 (Fig. 6), traveling in these guides are four pieces 161 from whichproject four arms 1G2 carrying rollers which engage with the slot 163 in the cam-tO and are moved in and out. At'the extremity "of the pieces 161 I attach the ends of sets of lperpqidicular levers 32, 32" having fulcrums of varying lengths seel'lred in propacket holder which are operated simultaneously. These folders are mounted in car- 'riaiges or guides 44 on the pl-atforn'is 30, 301. The lower platform maybe rigidly secured to the upright rods, the upper platfoli'nris prehu'ably mounted free and actuated hy springs 47. This plattorni is ad ustable for various positions on the rod toaccounnodate long or. short packages and is raised or lmvercd by means of a cylindrical :shapcd piece/33,. mounted on the adjustingshat-t.

220. This piece has a pin on its interimsurface engra gili ga groove in the shaft so that it will turn with the ehatt while beingt'rce to more up and down. iVlounterl on lherin'iml platform 30 is a bracket 230 withwa ping,

niadeto engage with a helicalgroove in the piece so that turning the shaft \\jill raluso the piece 33 to rise or fall carryingthc platform 30 with it. While I prm'ide this atljustment for the general length-oi the packet I also provide a secondary adjust- 'lllellll t-o'accoi'nmodatc the variations due to no; u coin. For lhis purpose the platform 5; is left fre to rise against'theaction ol gravity or the springs 47, the action ofthe e actionturns over the end of the last fold of top folders when pressing down the paper being to lift the platform 30 to which theyare attached. In order that each folder may not have this work to do I- provide a wedged shaped piece 231 (Figs. 1, 21, 21*) on the rim of a spring actuated piece 233- mounted on astud 232. As theplatform is raised this wedged shapededge forces itself between the platform and a swivel arm 156 attached to the cylindrical piece and "keeps them apart until tripped by thespring actuated piece 234. This tripping 1s performed at certain-intervals by the rod 111' which has a projection 135 which engages with the arm 134. The arrangement is such that the return inward of the arm 111 will not have any action on the Wedge shapedpiece. The piece 156 is kept in position by a post 157.

Reference to Figs. 5, 7, 9, 10, 11 willgive the details of the folders which consist of two bars 71, 72, mounted in a carriage 44. Hinged to the bars 71 are fingers or folders proper 75. These are raised or lowered by the action of the bar 7 2. The upright bar '36 passes through openings in the bars 71' and 72; owing to a small spring catch 66 (Fig. 9) which falls into a receiving notch in the bars 71 the two bars move forward in unison until the bar 71 is arrested by the set screw '70whenb the continued movement the end of the ar 72 engages with and presses down the folder 75; a single bar 36 operating two folders simultaneously. These folders may be spring actuated or a small pieceon the end of the bar72 may engage a pin in the heel of the folder and bring it to anupri'ght position on itsreturn; The bar 72 when it has ressed down the finger passes on a short c istance and locks it in its horizontal position, the catch 66 willthen be in the *notch' 67 of theop'posite bar and the two bars will move back together, the

finger 75 being ina horizontal position as it is withdrawn from the coin package, scours y ing'thereby a better'fold. The finger 75}. is brought again to the upright at thel end' of the return movement." While this is the a'c-' tioniof the first three sets of folders T'p'rovide a slightly different movement for the last set of folders which-are supplemented by mechanism for'tucking the end of the last fold'under the edge of the preceding fold. In addition to finger 75 the last set of folders have a piece80 made with a sharp edge and hinged to the piece 75. A longer movement is given to the bar 72 in this set of folders and after pressing-the finger piece 7 t0 the horizontal continues, its movement and gives a rotary turn to the piece 80,. This the paper andtucksitunder the edge of the last preceding fold. The piece 80 maybe supplemented by a second p1ec e 8l sprmg actuated which receives an additional pressure from-the bar 72 and assists in securing a better action, The folder 75 may have mounted on it a loose piece 7 6, which actually contacts thepaper and ,moving more freely than the piece permits a better tucking action. The piece ma be spring actuated. The guides 44 out e last set of folders arehinged and secured by stud 73 with a spring 74 to the brackets 30, 30 so that thewhole carriage will yield sufficiently to allow the blades 76 to rotate above the face of the coin to perform the tucking under of the last fold.

' Attached to the bracket 60 at the top of the machine I provide a cylindrical magazine which has an interior tube 63 (Fig. 14)

formed in the shape of a 'coil'of thin metal,

the size of this tube is regulated by two series of'cams shown in detail in Figs. 15 and 16. These cams are mounted OIIeplIlS 64' on "the flanged ends of a cylindrical piece. 61 which may be turned in the casing 42 by a lever 62. Pins 65 secured to the casing fall in slots in the cams and by securing partial rotation on the pins 64' cause a pressure on the cylindrical piece 63, thereby regulating the diameter. Alink'195 connects by means of a stud 194 with a bracket on the regulating shaft 193 for the'control. Under the to, arrest the motion of the machine, A projection ,fmmthe lever185f. engages with this stopi s'o that when the lever-is swung to l forced out of tlie wayby the arm 10 which 5 permits the machine Ito'jstart gathe'gates how-' I oipen thegates:v of the magazine *thestop wil be I ever will not ;at oncefcloseiasthe projection 7' rrdmthe Iefve is arrestedby thej end-of the degrees: it contacts one end'of' thefstopi and releases the IeverandbringS the stop 1n po-- sitionptoarre'st'the' machine after the next complete cycle of movements.

In adapting the machine to do various denominations of coins it is found necessary to adjust various parts'to'suitthe varying diameter of1the-coins5and also independ-j ently arrange for. packages ,of various lengths. )It will beseen that I have connected by; various devices all 'of the adjustments for the different diameters to a smgle long rod or shaft 1'93 suitably mounted on the machine. I provide this shaft with a handle or lever l99 which swings above a plate168 on which suitable figures are arranged to inchcate "various 1 coins it A steady pin on "the "llhc"adjiistments f or the lengthi'of the packages are controlled by the rod 220 which i s preferably geared to a horizontal rod 221 havinga knobs 219,: a pointer attached ,to this shaft or knob {will point -When turned to "figures on adial 218.

This Will advance successively the four sets of folders. When the last set of folders have turned down the fourth fold of paper at each end the pieces 80 89 will turn the edge of the lastfold under the edge of the preceding one. s on the return of the last long lever 32 the rod 111 attached thereto will swingopen the hinged section 51 of packet holder-and the finished packet will be ejected by the arm 58.- The ratchet pawl, 12 is then thrown out and the folding mechanism comes to rest. The receptacle. for the next lot of coin is then formed as spindle and plug about 90% of itse-ntire motion, depressing the spring 29 and at the same time the cam 110 will have lewered the telescoping tube "114.

The wind ng spindle again performs its rotary movement I and israised to'its full height, releasing the catch 95 and permitting the arm 29 actuated bylspring 29, to grip-the paper, assisting in forming a complete turn of the paper,

thus shaping the receptacle for the next article to be pack'eted; Simultaneously ith the beginningof this movement of the vvinding spindle an arm 69 intercepts the lever 99 and by lifting the rod 98 presses on the spring post-55 and trips the rod 111, the gate 51 does not however return ent rely but arrested by the ejector piece 58 coming in contact ,with the head of the spring post 55. A second tripping action is; perforn'icd When the final. winding operation is performed by again raising the post 55 so that the piece 58 falls below the head on the smaller part of the shaft of 55, thus onabling the full pressure of the spring56 toloe exerted on the coin packet, The second tripping action is performed by the piece 24: on the winding spindle. The machine is arrested after one complete circle by the lug 190 which intercepts the'arm 10 on driving shaft. p
